VISIT TO THE JAIL.
ALI the Prisoners Have Some.
thing to Say to a BaxOO Re-
porter.

A visit to the county Jail this after
noon found the prisoners, with the ex.
ception of Mrs. Burns. enjoying them
selves in all the ways common to
prison life. Some were sing.
ing and some were playing
cards, while others were practicing
the art of dancing.
Mrs. Burns is the only woman in
the Jail, and seems to be thoroughly
contented with her lot /; however, she
expressed much chagrin relative to her
trial and conviction. She has
served about three weeks of her time,
and has yet to serve about fifty
days.
Beecher and Wade, the circus
toughs, were looking hale and hearty,
and said they were not guilty of the
charge against them, and thought
they would be acquitte d.
They. we're very anxious to learn wherh-
er or not Fitzgerald, the man they so
badly used up, was remaining in the
city to testify against them, and
seemed to think that if he appeared
against them their cases
would be "dough." Mead,
the Chicago burglar, was happy as a
lark and didn't seem to care much one
way or the other about his future
welfare.
There are in all fourteen prisoners
in the Jail, and some of the candidates
for the pen have strong chances for
going there.

BIOGRAPHICAL.
Gen. Waddy Thompson was born
in Hart county, KY, March %,
1885. He came to Missouri in 1912,
locating in Macon county where he
remained until 1854, going thence to
Adair county in 1861, and to John
son county in 1877. In the fall of
that year he was interested in the coal
Dines in Montserrat, and worked three
hundred convicts in the mines with
great success. Gen. Thompson was
married in Howard county, in 1858,
to Miss Elizabeth Wilkinson, the
accomplished daughter of Charles
Wilkinson, Esq, a prominent farmer
and stock raiser. To them were born
FIVE children, three of them, Fannie
(Mrs. Dean Redford), Gussie and
Waddy. jr., being now alive. The
family lived until two or three years
ago in Warrensbarg, moving thence to
their farm near Lamonte, where they
have since resided. They have en-
joyed the respect and esteem of all
their neighbors, who will join in ex-
pressions of deep sorrow at this sore
affection.

Good Advise.

A prominent citizen said to a
BAzoo reporter to-day, in reply to the
best method of booming Sedalia :
"The only way is TO arrest some of
the respectable Migrants. First clear
the city of all its dead beats, and then
let every man 90 to work. Let these
fellows that have squeaking organs,
purchased on payments, STOP that non
sense, move his family in the back
room or up stairs, get him some tools
and go to manufacturing something
on bis own responsibility. What we
want" continued he, sis personal
manufactures. Let him make
shirts, boots, shoe pegs, brooms,
clothes pins, anything pertaining to
the necessaries of life. When that
end is brought about, money will re-
main in Sedalia and the people will
not 60 to st. LOUIS to purchase these
things. | tell you. young man, this
is what the Queen city needs"

Sam Jones on Newspapers.

In recent sermon, Rev. Sam Jones
had this to say of the newspaper: "It

newspapers probe into mems charac-
tiers, and the pure need not fear all

be safe from all newspapers is to be a
christian. The reporters are the best
detective force in this country. They
have brought more criminals to justice
and punctured more shames than all
other agencies combined. "-Ex.

Interstate Commerce Bill.

On last Friday, the Interstate Com
MERGE bill passed the House by the vote Of
219 to Al. Having passed the Senate
before, as announced in our last issue, it
now only requires the approval of the
President to make it a law.
The purpose Of the bill passed is to e.
quire all charges by railroads for the trans
portation of freight and passengers to be
reasonable and just" and this reasonable
ness and justice in making rates is to
characterize the treatment accorded to
localities as we'll as persons. This laudable
purpose is sought to be effected by prohi-
billions which are to be enforced by the
courts, aided and guided by railroad COM
mission. There are, for example, to be no
unjust Determinations, whether by special
rates, rebates, drawbacks or any of the
other devices of which railroad manage
ment is so prolific. Every person, firm,
corporation and locality is to receive like
accommodation. More is not to be charged
for short than for a long haul, provided
the circumstances are substantially similar.
To vitalize competition all pooling agree
ments to put up rates are forbidden. Pub
licity of rates is required, and the liberty
of the railroads to alter rates is restricted
within due limits. Power to investigate
both the management Of all railroads and
the circumstances connected with any al
legged violation on their part Of the act is
lodged in commission of five persons to be
appointed by the President.
